How to play an alarm sound

The simplest way to play an alarm sound is to open the device page. Start by navigating to Management > Devices and choose the desired device. Click the open icon or double click the row to open device page.

Start the Play alarm sound action from the page action menu and follow the instructions.

When you're ready press Play alarm sound button to confirm and start playing the configured alarm sound on the device. Alarm sound stops when users react to the received notification or automatically after ringing for one minute. Volume of the device is set to the maximum level and restored to original settings when alarm sound stops.

The status of the action can be seen from the Management > Action log page or from the device events. You can also play an alarm sound on multiple devices at once from Management > Devices page or from any configured My report.
